HOW EVOLUTION
FLUNKED THE SCIENCE TEST

EVOLUTION
IS A MYTH! 2
AGE OF THE EARTH - 2
It
is amazing how the facts of science vindicate the Bible Writings. It
says in the Bible that God made this world about 6,000 years ago. When
we turn to the discoveries of scientists, archaeologists, and
historians, we learn that the information they discovered agrees with
what the Bible says. Consider these facts:
11
- Down in the oil fields of Texas, or anywhere else in the world, when
drillers first penetrate into oil, there is a “gusher." Oil
spurts up out of the well, fast and hard. This is caused by high
pressure in the oil vein. But, analysis of the surrounding rock shows
that all the pressure should be gone within a few thousand years,—yet
there it is: high pressure. This shows these deep rock formations and
the entrapped oil cannot be older than 7,000 to 10,000 years.
12
- Scientists tell us it takes 300 to 1,000 years to make one inch of
topsoil. Yet the average depth of topsoil is only about eight inches. On
this basis, the earth could only be a few thousand years old.
13
- Century after century, Niagara River keeps eroding away. The length of
the gorge, to the point where the erosion is taking place (which is
Niagara Falls), Is 7 miles. Since it is known the erosion is about 3.5
feet per year, the age of the falls could only be about 5,000 to 10,000
years at the most. However, the Flood would have greatly accelerated
that erosion.
14.
Everyone has heard of the Mississippi delta. It is a lot of dirt that
has been washed out into the Gulf of Mexico by the Mississippi River.
Every year the delta is enlarged by about 300 million cubic yards (229
million cm] of mud. Yet, if the world were very old, that delta is not
as big as it ought to be. Calculations reveal it has only been forming
for about 4,620 years. But, if the world were even 120,000 years old,
that delta would extend all the way to the North Pole! So keep that in
mind, the next time you look at a map of Louisiana.
15
- Many islands in the Pacific are made by coral, which grows and hardens
at a steady rate. Coral growth rates indicate the earth is quite young.
No known coral formation is older than 3,500 years.
16.
Sequoias are never older than 4,000 years, yet they seem to be the
original trees in their areas. Bristlecone pines were once thought to
be older (over 4,000 years); however, it is now known that some years
they have two tree rings. Therefore, the sequoias remain the oldest.
Since nothing can kill a sequoia, except man's axe and a worldwide
Flood, the age of the sequoias-earth's oldest living tree-is important.
17.
If mankind had been living on earth for millions of years, we should
find records extending back at least 500,000 years. But, instead,
records only go back to about 2000-3500 B.C. Then, when writing began,
it began fully developed. Well-authenticated Egyptian dates only go back
to 1600 B.C.
18.
Bible records carry us back to a Creation date of approximately 4000
B.C., with a Flood date of about 2348 B.C. Scientific facts, such as we
find here, point us toward the same dates.
19.
Prior to 2250 B.C., we have not one record of a solar eclipse ever
having been seen by people! Because it is totally accurate, that
earliest recorded astronomical event is a significant date. It came only
about a hundred years after the Flood. We have reason to believe the sky
was darkened with volcanic eruptions for years after the Flood ended.
20.
The oldest writing (pictographic Sumerian) cannot be older than about
3500 B.C. The earliest Western script (Proto-Sinaitic) began about 1550
B.C.
21.
No really verified archaeological datings predate the period of about
3000 B.C. More ancient dates come from radiocarbon dating; But, prior
to about 600 -B.C., they were known to be much more inaccurate. In every
instance, our earliest aspects of civilization (crops, animal husbandry,
metallurgy, building, cities. etc.) go back to the Near East. This
agrees with the Bible record —(Genesis 8:4).
22.
Records of ancient languages never go back beyond 3000 B.C.; yet,
beginning in the Near East, there are language families which have
spread all over the world since then.
23.
Estimates, based on population changes, indicate that about the year
3300 B.C., there was only one family.
24.
Evolutionary estimates of the age of the earth have constantly changed
and lengthened with the passing of time (now they are saying 5 billion
years). But the scientific evidence remains constant; and, as new
authentic evidence emerges, it only fastens down the dates even more
firmly. It all points to a beginning for our planet, about 6,000 years
ago. Some may see it as 7,000 to 10,000 years, but the evidence points
most distinctly toward a date of about 4,000 B.C. for the origin of
our planet. The evidence for an early earth, is not only solid, it is
scientific.
True
science agrees with Creation and the Flood, as given in the Bible. We
can be thankful we have our Bibles. =^..^=
Proteins and DNA
Your
body is wonderfully made. All the different parts and their functions
are amazing. Yet it was not long ago that scientists discovered that a
complicated set of codes governs how your body is structured and how
it works.
That
master code is called DNA.
You
also have very complicated proteins in your body. Without them you could
have no muscles and could not move a finger. Indeed, without protein,
you would not really have a finger!
Here
are a few facts about DNA and protein, which disprove the theory of
evolution.
Evolution
teaches that you came about by chance. Some seawater slopped together
one day, and made itself into some small creatures. Later, these little
animals made themselves into bigger, far different creatures. The result
is all our millions of plants and animals we see about us today.
There
are many, many facts that show that evolution is a false theory. But the
truth about DNA and protein, alone, is enough to finish it off.
There
are billions of cells in your body. Each cell has a complete code within
it. It is the DNA code. Also called your gene pool, it contains the
whole plan for your body.
There
is no possible way that this code could have been made by chance. It is
far too complicated. Only someone with highest intelligence could have
made the code and placed it in your body. That person is God.
In
addition to DNA, each cell in your body also needs a translation
package, messenger RNA, a biological compiler, an index, and a cell
switch, in order to make the DNA usable. Each of those special units is
also in the cell.
There
is no way they could made themselves, and there is no way they could
have been made by chance.
To
add to the difficulty, several different DNA genes control each
characteristic in your body! So they all had to be there, perfectly in
place, from the very beginning. There is no way one could be made, and
then years (or even minutes) later, another could be made. Everything
had to be there—all at once.
Evolutionists
teach that, if it is impossible for something to happen, it will happen
if you give it enough time. That is the basic teaching of evolution. But
it is untruth. If something cannot happen, it will never happen.
If
I throw a book into the air, will it change into a live pigeon? No. If I
throw it into the air a million billion times, will it happen? Never.
Dirty seawater is said to have made living creatures. But that never
happened. It could not possibly happen. The DNA code could not be made
by ocean water moving about.
Every
species of plant or animal has different DNA codes. They are all
unique, and all extremely important. None of them could be made by
chance. Since it is impossible to make one DNA code by chance, how much
more impossible would it be to make the millions of codes found in all
the kinds of plants and animals?
Protein
is made of thousands of amino acids. Using million-dollar laboratories,
with lots of expensive chemicals, scientists are able to make amino
acids. But what they make is always dead. It has no life in it.
The
scientists can no more make life than you can make a live bunny rabbit
out of sawdust or grass clippings.
Although
it is impossible to make even the smallest creature—even if someone
could do it, it still would not be alive. Only God can give life to
something.
Just
as it is impossible to make one DNA molecule, it is impossible to make
one strand of protein. That is what is in your arm muscles. Each strand
contains thousands of amino acids, arranged in exact order.
So
it is just as impossible to make protein, as it is to make DNA. No one
can do it, and dirt, sand, or seawater cannot do it either. But it is
also just as impossible to make sugars, fats, and enzymes by chance.
So
everything in a plant or animal has to all be there—all the DNA,
protein, sugars, enzymes, and all the rest. If it is not, the creature
soon weakens and dies.
Everything
has to be in very good condition—right from the start. Many scientists
tell us it would be impossible for evolutionary methods (which means
just by accident over a long period of time) to make even the smallest
germ, much less raccoons, whales, roses, and boys and girls.
Only
God can make a living creature. Only He can make your puppy dog. He is
the one who made you. Thank
Him every day for what He has done. Give Him your future, and live a
clean, honest life, obeying Jesus and He can help you live a far happier
life than you could otherwise live. =^..^=
Natural Selection
When
plants and animals bear young, there are variations. That Is why you do
not look exactly like your parents.
Evolutionists
say that these variations can eventually make completely different
species, by what they call "natural selection. "
But
this theory is not true. There are variations that occur, but they are
always within the same species. For example, there are over a hundred
different breeds of dogs—yet they are all dogs. Even scientists will
tell you they are all in the dog species. There are no changes that make
them into tigers or horses.
Variations
never produce a new type of creature. There are many breeds of cows, but
they never give birth to an elephant. It is a different kind of animal.
The variations that occur are natural varieties within species.
"Evolution"
is the teaching that one species changes, or evolves, into another
species.
But that never happens. We can search the world and never find anything
other than distinct species. There are varieties within each species,
but each species is distinct from the others.
Evolutionists
teach that everything happens accidentally —without any intelligent
planning or purpose. But the truth is that every creature was planned.
Every part of your body was made according to a blueprint. Consider your
eyes, your ears, and your tongue. How could random chance make them?
Another
term used, by the evolutionists, is "survival of the fittest.
" That is supposed to mean that because the strongest and
‘best’ animals have a better chance to live and have babies, this
way they gradually change from one species to greater species. But
really what happens, is that damaged ones die, and those closest to the
pure pattern of that same species survive, they don’t become something
else.
Evolutionists
also talk about "inheritance of acquired characteristics."
This is the idea that, if you lose an arm, your son will only have one
arm. But that, of course, is not true. It was a theory which scientists
rejected in the 19th century. Yet it is the basis of evolutionary theory
today. Your children inherit, not accidents, but DNA code patterns. That
is why your puppy dog will only have puppy dogs. It will not have cats
or cows or cucumbers.
The
DNA code is a barrier wall which evolution cannot pass across. This code
locks every species into a certain basic pattern. But within each
pattern, or species, there is variation. But natural variations result
in changes, or varieties, only within the species; changes which make
one species into a different species never occur.
It
is because of natural variations that everyone's face looks a little
different. Yet even those differences come from inherited DNA patterns.
That is why you look so much like your ancestors.
Evolutionists
fear to admit that there is any purpose in the formation of galaxies,
stars, planets, or living creatures. They fear it, because purpose
points to a super-intelligent Creator.
Every
true species produces young according to the genetic code (DNA) within
its genes. It is absolutely impossible for a mother cat to produce a
fish, a canary, or a gopher. It just cannot be done. And a cat cannot
produce a half-cat and half-something else. Cats only produce
cats. Some cats are black, some white, and some tricolor. These are
variations within species and this is quite normal. It is only when
variations produce new species, that evolution has occurred. And this
never happens.
Evolutionary
theory requires total randomness in everything made, but all about us
we see purpose in everything. The plant is given roots to extract water
and minerals: and leaves to process sunlight and water to produce sugar.
The animal is given legs, eyes, ears, and marvelous internal organs.
Everything has a purpose. Nothing is random or haphazard. Everything is
wonderfully designed.
Only
God can make a tree, a butterfly, or a humming bird. And when He works,
He does not work in a confused manner. He made many different kinds of
creatures, but each kind is special. We can be thankful we are special
to Him also. =^..^=
